The mortality rate was.% (N = 1) compared with the expected rate of 1% 1.%. Source: Data from the UHC Clinical Data Base/Resource Manager TM used by permission of UHC. All rights reserved. Mitral Valve Surgery, Repair vs Replacement Repair Replacement performs mitral valve repair procedures rather than replacement whenever possible. Mitral valve repair is associated with better survival, improved lifestyle, better preservation of heart function, and a lower risk of stroke and infection (endocarditis) compared with mitral valve replacement. Repair procedures also do not require postprocedure anticoagulation therapy. Isolated Mitral Valve Surgery, In-Hospital Mortality (N = 5) 1 STS expected % Replacement % Repair The 1 in-hospital mortality rates for patients who had isolated mitral valve surgery were lower than expected for both repair and replacement procedures.

6 Surgical Treatment of Active Infective Endocarditis Bacterial (infective) endocarditis is a life-threatening infection of the heart valves or the heart s inner lining (endocardium). The condition causes growths on or holes in the valves or scarring of the valve tissue, most often resulting in a leaky heart valve. surgeons treat patients with infective endocarditis, including those with advanced disease and prosthetic valve endocarditis (N =13) 15 Primary In 1, surgeons performed 13 valve procedures to treat patients with infective endocarditis. A total of were primary operations and 7 were reoperations.

Since the inception of the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) program in, has become a world leader in the use of this specialized treatment in patients carefully selected based upon stringent clinical criteria. More than 7 patients have had this procedure at with great success. There were 1 in-hospital deaths in the -patient cohort (11 1, average age 1.15 years), which represented a 1.9% mortality rate compared with the expected rate of.%. 3 Outcomes 1

A total of % were reoperations on patients who had previous open heart surgery. Valve Surgery Primary Operation and In-Hospital Mortality (N = 79) 1 First Surgery Patients who have valve surgery reoperations have a somewhat higher risk of death compared with patients who have primary surgery. This is due to the overall decrease in health over time. Despite this, the in-hospital mortality rates for patients were lower than expected for reoperations as well as for primary procedures.
